What if the basic SqeezeNetwork as it stands were to remain free (perhaps will a few more features) but also had a premium service that was charged for? obviously this wouldn't appeal to everyone, but if the features were compelling enough may mean that some people would buy SBs just for the SN and wouldn't need to run any type of server at all. This would be a very good revenue stream for SlimDevices i think. Something to think about at least. -- funkstar ------------------------------------------------------------------------ funkstar's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2335 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=19987 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
